A long time ago people thought that the sun went round the earth. In some countries people even said that the sun was a god (神). They thought the god drove across the sky each day on a golden horse.

As the new semester begins,millions of college students across the country are trying hard to remember how best to write a paper-or,more likely,how best to delay that paper.

Procrastination is the thief of time and a lot of students suffer from it.They can spend whole days in the library doing nothing but staring into space,eating snacks,surfing the Internet,watching videos and looking at their pretty peers sitting around them,who,most likely,are doing nothing either.

Paralyzed by their habit to procrastinate,they write micro blogs about their fears,asking their online friends if they sometimes have the same issue.But this does nothing to solve their problems.

According to a recent report by the BBC,95 percent of us procrastinate at some point and 20 percent of the world’s population are procrastinators,complicating their lives with their continual delaying of tasks.

Procrastinators like to find excuses to justify their behavior,but BBC columnist Rowan Pelling says they are all wrong.Many procrastinators tell themselves they are perfectionists who work best under pressure.Pelling says this is nonsense,as work done at the last minute is more likely to have mistakes than work done on time.

She says the behavior of procrastinators often makes them feel flustered and ashamed,inconveniences others,and annoys loved ones.

Fortunately,social scientists have made tireless efforts to understand this behavioral shortcoming and offer strategies to control it.Piers Steel,a Canadian social scientist and author of The Procrastination Equation,believes humankind is“designed”to procrastinate.Nevertheless,he suggests a couple of good ways to get through the task at hand.

The first one is obvious:Break the task down into small pieces and work your way through them methodically.

The second is clever:Give a trusted friend a sum of money and tell them that if you don’t complete the task you have undertaken by a specific time,they can keep it or donate it to a cause you hate.

1.What does the underlined word“Procrastination” in the second paragraph refer to?

A.A bad habit of putting work or tasks off.

B.A thief who steals time and money in college.

C.A college student who learns nothing.

D.A study way of doing nothing in the library.

2.According to Rowan Pelling,we can learn that procrastinators .

A.can find reasonable excuses for their behavior

B.a(chǎn)re able to work best under pressure

C.a(chǎn)re more likely to avoid mistakes at work[]

D.may upset themselves and their loved ones more frequently

3.Which of the following may Piers Steel support?

A.Human beings are not born to be procrastinators.

B.Complete your tasks or work step by step.

C.Give your trusted friend money and ask him to help you finish your tasks.

D.You can’t control procrastination but you can avoid it.

4.What’she best title of the text?

A.Who steals my time?

B.The solutions to procrastination

C.I’ll do it tomorrow,I swear!

D.Don’t do nothing!

I believe that one of the best ways to connect with people and build quality relationships is through making conversation. Although most people can hold a conversation, only a few are smooth when they talk. I have discovered five simple and effective ways to be a smooth talker. Here they are:

Talk slowly

Generally, good talkers don’t rush into a conversation. 1.____ They act as if they have all the time in the world. This makes them come off as centered and collected. Model this way of talking and you will create the same effect.

Most people keep eye contact about 2/3 of the time or less when they talk. 2.____ This will convey confidence and interest in interacting with them.

3.____

People with good conversation skills tend to notice the kind of things that the average person doesn’t notice, and to bring such details into the conversation. They may notice and point out an interesting ring on the other person’s hand, a certain foreign accent, or a certain voice tone they use when saying a name. Thus, such individuals impress people in a very elegant manner.

Express Your emotions

4._____ Express your feelings about those facts. Keep in mind that it is at the emotional level that people connect best.

Use the best words
